ColourPop In Bloom Set
ColourPop In Bloom Set

ColourPop In Bloom Set ($39.00 for 0.56 oz.) includes three cheek colors and three lipsticks released in collaboration with Jamie Greenberg. It’s an assortment of brightened takes on spring shades, and it seems like a little preview of the brand’s upcoming cream highlighters (they’ve teased about them on Instagram) with Double Dip. All six products performed good to great, were easy to apply, and lasted a nice length of time. I think a lot of the shades included are on the more dupable side, but the silver lining is that this is a more affordable way to get a lot of those higher-end similar shades, though they have to be purchased as a set. I hope we’ll see some shades get added to the permanent range!

Double Dip is described as a “soft peach with subtle highlights with a satin pearl finish.” It’s a champagne beige with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. The texture was lightly creamy–a little more emollient than most of their cheek colors–and was easy to blend on the skin, but the more velvety, clay-like formula (generally) made it appear as a subtle sheen on the skin, rather than full-on frost. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Hysterical is described as a “cool-toned plum pink with a matte finish.” It’s a muted, medium-dark pink with cool, blue undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had buildable coverage from semi-sheer to fully opaque, depending on whether you applied with fingertips (as recommended for full coverage) or a stippling brush (as recommended for light coverage). The texture was velvety and smooth, and it blended nicely on the skin while wearing for nine hours. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Tongue Tied is described as a “bright warm coral with a matte finish.” It’s a vibrant, coral-orange with warm, reddish undertones and a satin shimmer. I’m not sure why it’s described as matte, because there is definitely a fine shimmer running through it that gives the skin a natural sheen (but doesn’t emphasize pores). It had good color payoff that was opaque when applied with fingertips and more semi-sheer to semi-opaque when applied with a brush (depending on your choice of brush). The color wore well for nine hours on me. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Frenemie is described as an “electric warm-toned coral with a cream finish.” It’s a bold, medium-dark coral-red with warm undertones and a soft, creamy finish with a light shine. It had almost cull color coverage that applied fairly evenly and smoothly. The texture had more slip than some of the other shades in this formula have had for me. The lipstick glided on without tugging and wore well for five hours. It was neither drying nor hydrating. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Freshman is described as a “deep hot pink with a cream finish.” It’s a brightened, medium-dark fuchsia-red with cool, blue undertones and a glossy, creamy finish. The texture was light-medium in thickness with a moderate amount of slip, which gave it that really opaque coverage that was still creamy and very wet-looking. It wore well for six hours and left a stain behind, but I had a little bit of feathering after four hours of wear. The formula was neither drying nor hydrating. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Sweet-Thing is described as a “cool-toned medium true pink with a cream finish.” It’s a lightly muted, medium pink with cool, blue undertones and a glossy sheen. It had mostly opaque color coverage that went on evenly and smoothly. The color stayed on for four and a half hours and was lightly hydrating over time. The texture was slightly thicker but held in place without sliding around. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

You look amazing in those lip colours!! Will you be reviewing the permanent collection’s blushes any time soon?(: I’m dying to know what you think of them

Christine Avatar

Hi Jessica,

I have been working through them diligently and have reviewed at least a few already – however, since they are permanent, I do not review them in succession as I test other limited edition cheek products some days, other days something permanent, and so forth 🙂 Hope you understand!

So pretty! I had the Fetch set in my cart, went to paypal to pay and it was almost double the cost after shipping and exchange to Canada. The rates absolutely suck right now. Sooooo, maybe someday I’ll get to try this amazing Colourpop you speak of! LOL

Ginny Avatar

This is such a great, cohesive set in that it seems like whoever is drawn to it is going to like and be able to use every product in it. It would be a great gift. The highlighter here looks like a bronzer to me 😉 and definitely makes me excited for their other highlighters. I hope they do foundations someday.

Hi Averymae!

I haven’t had any issues yet, but I have only had my products for a few months (well, not all of them, obviously, but my oldest ones are only a few months old). I have formulas that are very similar to this (MAC, Chanel, Dior, Buxom) that I have had for years and those have been fine. It is imperative to twist them tightly closed AND make sure not to leave it open for an hour etc. every time you use them.

Hey Christine!

Double Dip looks absolutely GORGEOUS – that sheen is to die for! I was wondering if you’ve tried this shade as an eyeshadow, it seems like it would make a beautiful inner corner highlight AND it has a long-wear formula, so I think it might hold up well. What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks!

I’ve been eyeing this since it was released, but I was waiting for your review before pulling the trigger! :-)These are my kind of colors, and the packaging is so pretty! Thanks for the review. I always trust your opinion.

OMG 39 BUCKS FOR ALL OF THESE? Gimme a set already! Let me see which friend in the US I should harass for sending one over LOL Love absolutely every single shade on you!

If only Double Dip & Hysterical were sold on their own… I can’t justify $40+ on just the 2, and I would not even bother to try the rest. If Double Dip & Hysterical were sold separately, I would have to take the plunge & place an order.

I purchased the set because my sister and I grew up with Jamie and her brother, and I am proud of what she’s doing. I didn’t think that any of the colors were within my comfort zone however. I was absolutely wrong. All of the colors are gorgeous and scream spring. I loved ColourPop before this – their products are absolutely amazing and so affordable. I’m an even bigger fan now. If you haven’t already purchased this set, do it now!

Colour Pop is amazing, for such an inexpensive brand they produce such stunning products, I swear they can do no wrong lol.
That highlight looks beautiful on you Christine!

Oh my lord, this brand seems like it can do no wrong! Gorgeous, absolutely everything! This is precisely why I have zero patience with brands which keep releasing utter crap at premium prices. This is a great example of great products at more than affordable price tags.
